Wenmo and I nodded, so the three of us began to pack up our things, carry our own equipment, and throw tents, pots and other utensils onto the rubber boat.

After packing everything, we suddenly discovered a problem. Due to the heavy fog, we could not see the situation on the surrounding sea. We forgot where Lao Leitou's ship was parked. When we went to the island yesterday, we didn't expect this situation to happen. No one deliberately remembered these things, and now we have completely lost our direction.

I patted my second uncle, "Uncle II, take out the compass you used last night and help us guide us."

The second uncle looked at me helplessly, "I'm a Feng Shui compass, not a compass!"

"Come on," I continued, "Uncle II, do you think I forgot that I have studied physics. As long as it is a magnetic needle, you can distinguish between the north and south geomagnets. Is there a magnetic needle in the middle of your compass?"

Uncle Er sighed, "You can say this principle, I won't use it for you. Do you know what material the island and reef under our feet are?"

“Is this related to identifying the direction?”

"Of course there is nonsense!" said Uncle Er: "Do you understand that the magnetic fields affect each other? Let me tell you that the island and reef under our feet should be composed of volcanic rocks. The volcanic rocks contain a large amount of metal elements such as iron, magnesium, copper, etc. The magnetic needles on the compass will be affected here. I have discovered it since yesterday when I took advantage of the astrological positioning. Otherwise, I would have used it long ago, and I will teach you!"

"This," I was speechless when my second uncle said.

Wen Mo pulled up the rubber boat, "No matter what, go into the sea first to look for it, you can always find it."

I had no choice but to do this. Wenmo and I pulled the rubber boat and arrived at the beach. In the vast fog, we could not find any shadow of the boat.

The three of us rowed the rubber boat and began to search on the shore. After searching for a long time, we found nothing. Not only did we not find Lao Leitou's ship, but we did not find the stranded ship.

"Hey, it's weird!" I looked at the vast white surroundings, "We've been around the island for almost a while! How could we not find it?"

Uncle II said: "I remember that the ship should have been parked in a relatively close position, not so close to the shore, so let's look outward."

So we expanded the scope of our search bit by bit, but still couldn't find any trace of the ship. My heart gradually began to be anxious, and I felt a sense of confusion as if I was blindfolded. The second uncle next to me kept looking around and frowned. It seemed that his feeling was not much better than mine. Only Wenmo looked calmer.

As I was slashing, I noticed something was wrong and quickly called to stop.

Uncle II quickly asked me what was wrong? What did I find?

I pointed to the sea surface within my eyes and said, "We should be in a direction. I remember that there is a reef area around Wufeng Island. I was just around our boat and I could occasionally see a reef, but now I haven't seen a reef for a long time. This means that we are far away from Wufeng Island!"

When the second uncle heard my words, his face changed, "You said it is true! It is true! Maybe we are really getting further and further! Let's turn around and turn back."

Wenmo and I quickly turned around and drew in the direction we went back, but after a long time we still didn't see a reef. I never missed the reef as urgently as I am now.

I was already a little panicked, "We have lost our way!" In this vast sea, the three of us and this big rubber boat, the Dragon Prince hiccup, could overturn us. I quickly asked my second uncle, "What should we do! This boat is really insecure!"

The second uncle waved his hand, "Don't panic, there is fog, it means there is no wind for the time being. We are safe in a short period of time. I think we should not move now. Visibility is so bad, so we can't do anything. We can only wait for the fog to dissipate. At that time, the sea will be clear at a glance, so let's find a way to find a boat."

I nodded, but now it has to be like this. Wenmo and I both put away the oars in our hands.

The three of us sat on the boat, and no one spoke. Wen Moben didn't talk much, and sat there holding the oar, quietly looking at the fog. Uncle Er lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking. In this situation, I was really not in the mood to speak, and fiddled with the other oar in my hand anxiously.

I feel that time has passed for a long time, but the fog still has not weakened. A fear suddenly emerged in my heart. This fear originated from helplessness in the current situation and a loss of control over the future situation. I began to feel uneasy, anxious, and panic. I tried my best to restrain my emotions. I don’t know how long the fog will last, but if this happens for a long time, I worry that I will collapse.

Suddenly, Wen Mo, who was sitting next to me, made a gentle question, and then put the oar in his hand into the water. After a while, he suddenly said, "No! The boat is moving by itself!"

"What!" I was almost standing up in shock, and my hull almost fell into the water in a swaying manner.

The second uncle repeatedly told me not to panic, "Don't scare yourself. The water on the sea is moving all the time, and I'm a little moved with the boat. This is normal!"

Wen Mo shook his head, "No, the ship moves much faster than what you said. You can put the oar in the water and feel it."

Uncle Er walked out of my hand and put it into the sea. After staying quietly for a while, his face suddenly changed. "It's really moving!" Uncle Er scratched his head, "But why is this? Did you encounter an undercurrent or something?" As he said that, Uncle Er looked at me.

"Don't look at me, how can I know!" I was just talking when I suddenly heard a gentle collision sound from the bottom of the boat. Since the ship we were on was a hard bottom boat, this sound was quite obvious.

I said to my second uncle nervously: "Uncle II! Have you heard the sound from the bottom of the boat?"

The second uncle looked at me blankly, "No?"

I was very sure that I heard it. I knew that my hearing was special. I could hear it. Uncle II might not be able to hear it, but Wen Mo would definitely do it. So I turned to ask Wen Mo, "Where are you? Wen Mo?" This was the first time in my life that I didn't want to get recognition from others. How I hope I heard it wrong. I really hope that Wen Mo shook his head. But things always go against my wishes. Wen Mo nodded firmly, but didn't say anything.

Uncle Er pressed his hand on the bottom of the boat in confusion, and then patted it hard. At the same time, I immediately heard a more obvious sound from the bottom of the boat. Uncle Er also felt it. He retracted his hand like an electric shock and said in panic: "Damn it, there is something under the boat!"

When I heard this, I almost jumped up. I asked in a trembling voice: "Under the boat, will it be, what, what! Could it be the monster that ate the giant octopus yesterday? Our boat will not be swallowed by it in one bite!"

Uncle Er waved his hand, "It shouldn't be. If the things below wanted to attack us, I would have taken action long ago and wouldn't have waited until now! Maybe the things below were just curious and might leave in a while!"

I cursed, "Damn! We won't be killed by it!"

The second uncle waited for me, "You kid can't say something good! I want something good!"

"Uncle Second, you are so light, how can you do this be a good thing!"

"Forget it!" Uncle Er sighed, "At present, we have no choice but to do it on the boat! Let's leave it to fate! As the saying goes: Destiny should die in the river, and the sea cannot tolerate it!"

"Bao, bah!" I sniffed a few times, "Second uncle, you made me think of something good, what you said is not auspicious!"

At this point, we were really powerless, just leaning on the boat, not knowing what would be waiting for us. In this mentality of giving up, I also found that the thing under our boat really didn't intend to attack us. In this way, my mood was a little relaxed than before, and I even fell asleep unknowingly.

Suddenly, a huge sound of slapping water sounded, and I was awakened suddenly. I looked in the sound and saw a huge three-masted sailboat driving from behind us.

The ship was very huge, as high as four or five floors. I quickly turned around and called me Uncle Er. Wen Mo and the others quickly rowed and avoided, but after looking at it, they found that they had disappeared, and I was the only one left on the rubber boat!
